Steps:
- Prepare the Chicken Marinade first. Get a large bowl. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Add the Chicken Thighs and give it a mix with your hands. Make sure you get into all the nooks and crannies. Add more oregano if necessary. Leave for 30ish minutes.
- Prepare wrap ingredients. Slice tomatoes, slice cucumber into half moon shapes, THINLY slice onions and slice the lettuce.
- Add the marinated chicken to a medium-heat skillet or frying pan for 5-7 minutes. Cook in 2 batches to avoid over crowding the pan (this should allow it to brown nicely). Once nicely browned and cooked through leave to rest on a chopping board for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Build the wraps. Toast the flatbread or tortilla on a frying pan. I place a tortilla directly onto the gas as this gives a nice charred flavour. You may prefer to heat in frying pan.
- Build the wraps - tortilla/flatbreat, then lettuce, onion, cucumber, tomatoes.and tzatziki. Be careful not to over fill, just a little of each is best. Slice the rested chicken and add to the wrap. And enjoy!
- To wrap the tortilla properly, first fold up from the bottom, the fold the two adjacent sides over.

Steps:
- Roughly chop the tomato, cut the cucumber into sticks and split and stone the olives (if using).
- Now heat the tortillas. If you have gas, put each one for 10 seconds on a lit gas ring - you have to be a little bit brave - then turn it over quickly, using tongs, and heat the other side for another 8 seconds or so. The tortillas will be slightly charred in places, which adds a fantastic flavour. If you don't have gas, warm a pan to a medium heat before quickly tossing in your tortillas one at a time. You don't need to have any oil on the pan.
- Make a row of tomato, cucumber, feta and olives down the centre of each warm tortilla. Now spread the hummus around the top and sides of the tortilla. Fold in the sides to seal in the ingredients and roll up tightly to make a big cigar. Cut in half and eat with your fingers.

Tips:
- Choose the right tortillas. For Greek wraps, you want to use soft, pliable tortillas that can hold up to the fillings without tearing. Corn tortillas or whole wheat tortillas are both good options.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better your wraps will taste. Look for fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese.
- Don't overstuff the wraps. You want to be able to fold the wraps without them falling apart. Aim for about 1/2 cup of filling per wrap.
- Be creative with your fillings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to Greek wrap fillings. Get creative and experiment with different combinations of vegetables, protein, and sauces.
- Serve the wraps immediately. Greek wraps are best when served fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Conclusion:
Greek wraps are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. They are packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of Greek wraps that will keep you satisfied and coming back for more.
